Best Unholy Death Knight Trinkets for Mage Tower Challenge 斯卡莫拉克碎片艾拉-卡拉卵囊碎裂的灵魂棱镜不稳定的奥术水晶Best Unholy Death Knight Talents for Mage Tower ChallengeUnholy Death Knight Strategy & Walkthrough for Mage Tower ChallengePhase 1 - 阿加莎培育憎恶

暗影猛刺 - Auto attack that deals low shadow damage.

阿加莎的狂怒 - A swirly that will spawn at the player's feat whenever an imp is killed.
Simply run out of these.

黑暗之怒阿加莎阴暗小鬼

This isn't very significant. Simply hit the boss a couple of times and you'll be able to interrupt her. No need to commit and cooldowns for this.

阴暗小鬼 - Spawn in sets of 1 - 3, teleport around, and prevent the boss from being harmed.
These imps are your highest priority, swap to them as soon as they spawn and kill them ASAP! They deal a ton of damage and prevent you from dealing any damage to the boss.

The easiest way of dealing with these is to save your 黑暗突变 for when they spawn. Furthermore, use your 反魔法护罩 for every one of these add sets!

阴燃的小鬼阴暗小鬼

Just swap to these and kill them quickly. They don't hurt that bad but it's not a good idea to leave them up for a significant amount of time.

冒烟的小鬼瘟疫区域

Swap to these and kill them quickly. Utilize your crowd control spells like 死亡之握 and 窒息 to interrupt their cast. It's important that you keep the space around the boss clean so that you don't take unnecessary damage!

小鬼仆从阿加莎

These are high priority since they quickly heal up the boss. Use 心灵冰冻, 死亡之握, 致盲冰雨, and 窒息 to interrupt their casts.

Save up a couple of runes when you see them spawn and pop down 枯萎凋零 to quickly cleave them down as they arrive.

Phase 2 - 阿加莎

邪焰巨石 - 阿加莎 will teleport away and begin throwing 邪焰巨石 at you.
Quickly run across the room, dodging the boulders. This will easily wipe you if you don't pay attention so watch your feet!

If you get hit, use 冰封之韧 to get out of the stun ASAP!

邪能熔岩冲击

Simply dodge these.

Summary

Prioritise killing the imps throughout the encounter, especially 阴暗小鬼 and 小鬼仆从.

Save your 黑暗突变, and 反魔法护罩 to deal with 阴暗小鬼s.

Dodge the boulders, they will most likely result in the most wipes.

I know Ill sound noob, but this challenge too is too hard.

Adds all spawn at the same time (1 out of 3 times) due to Agatha´s percentage... which basically makes my death strikes impossible to actually regain enough life back...

Also I have notices that many times my grips bug, and im unable to interrupt healer.

评论来自 Hatyn

I don't know what i'm doing wrong in this encounter. I'm not potting but am flasking and using mastery food every attempt. I can get her to about 80% before first immunity which seems pathetic to me. Even with placing the fuming imps and not killing them, i still struggle to do effective damage to the boss before i get in a situation where its dark fury + immunity + healing imps. I save transformation for the immunity packs i know are going to be bad, and dnd for the healing imps but think the lowest i got her was 63%. I know 5 mask wasn't anything spectacular but its an absolute joke compared to this. And whats worse is Blizzard didn't even annouce any nerfs for the Agatha encounter, singaling its all fine and i'm terrible at the game apparently. This probably more than anything has made me want to quit.

Highly recommend using the Death's Reach talent for this challenge. There are so many low-health imps that Death Grip is up almost all the time and it's hugely useful for interrupting/repositioning adds.

评论来自 Nehel

If you only care about the mount and not the set then do yourself a favor and just go with Fury with double 附魔武器 - 十字军. For the time being UH tuning is pure garbage comparing to Fury.

评论来自 SalcN

Anyone has any ideas for weapons to go with this set?

Also GL. Remember that this is one of the few challenges that isn't a race. Smack those imps, even if boss is at >5% or you might end up regretting it!

Edit:

After watching the videos I noticed that they had 46-52% mastery during the fight. I had 24% ! After switching things around I got to 47% mastery and one shot it, even through the phases where everything happens at once, mastery was the missing link for me. I understand the guide was written for UH DK players which may know this already but mastery makes a huge difference. If you're a casual DK like me, just go max mastery and enjoy the melting imps. Good luck!

---------------

I've done this fight as elemental, outlaw and fury. There's something funky about DK timers. It's the only class so far where all 3 mechanics overlap right after the 50% teleport.

I'm stuck at 43-60% wipes because she teleports, summons Umbral Imps right away (while I'm still in the middle of the room) and then the Imp Servants. While I get to her I'm usually not done with the imps before she puts up her immunity shield and have at least one servant channeling (I grip and asphyxiate them but they start channeling way faster than during phase 1 so one of them is usually healing while the shield is up). I keep putting reps in to see if I get lucky in a transition and she summons less Umbral Imps (there's an RNG component to how many fuming/umbral she calls) or I get Umbral Imps that won't teleport to the other side of the world.

I've tried pushing as fast as I can using the video strat of drums + pot + army to get transition asap (done in less than 3 minutes). I've tried delaying the transition as long as 5 minutes (no drums, no pot, no army) to see if I can get the timer overlap to happen before she teleports but the timers just stagger as normal. It doesn't matter how fast/slow I reach phase 2 it seems like the timers reset to a new counter to start the phase with an overlap. I have the most attempts on this challenge than on any other (have tome mount and 9/12 transmogs) and the phase 2 transition is just insane for DK (but not as bad as the arcane transition with Xylem lol)

Also, Umbral Imps teleport the furthest away than any other class I've done, it's insane that they're so far that the disease doesn't even spread to them. I have phase 1 down to muscle memory now, not a single puddle drops and servants are dealt with easily (I can do phase 1 super fast or slow, the mechanics timers are just staggered correctly)

Also, over half of the time I zone in and she's not there or just despawns, anybody else getting this? Wouldn't be a big issue but consumables still tick down while I'm just trying to start the fight (it takes me about 3 instances on average to start an attempt)

Just want to give some tips after at least 100 attempts on this to down it, a couple of which were sub 3-4% pulls. I may have smashed my keyboard a few times in agony.

249 ilvl DK
I mostly main Frost so my stat priority is completely messed up, so a properly geared unholy DK would be faster.

Consumables: Sylvan Elixir, Potion of Unbridled Fury, Drums of Fury, Augment Rune, Mastery Food, Healing Potion
Trinkets: Ravaged Seed Pod and Old Warrior Soul. Don't use any summoning trinkets as Agatha kills the summons very fast
Talents:
Clawing Shadows - To help kill those pesky imps that are too far away
Ebon Fever - Help to kill adds far away
Asphyxiate - Your save against fuming imps
Soul Reaper - Absolutely vital for breaking the shield on Agatha fast
Wraith Walk - You need this to get to Agatha fast when she translocates
Unholy Pact - form of AOE dps that lasts long, deals a lot of damage, and allows your pet to stun
Gargoyle - This is up to you. I use this because I felt Army tended to spend too much of its time running to make it worth it. I drop Gargoyle after a translocate and if I know a Dark Fury is coming up. Also Unholy Assault is viable as well.

There are a few additional things to note about the fight in general:

Fuming imps - They die as long as you Outbreak, 1xDeathcoil, 1xClawing Shadows and MELEE them once. You can at most Epidemic once more in case they are not dead.
Healing imps - They take longer. In general, slow them, drag them together, Outbreak, 4xEpidemic and full duration DnD will kill them.
All other imps - You almost always will have Ravaged Seed Pod for them. Place the AOE on the Umbral Imps after they teleport. I usually pop Dark Transformation just before they spawn, AMS, Outbreak, 2xEpidemic with the DT beam will kill them
Every time umbral imps spawn, do not rush into the middle to drop Ravaged Seed Pod unless you were already there. The fuming imps that usually spawn under Agatha will trigger their plague zone immediately, and you have to waste a stun to stop them. Wait for them to start to follow you around before you press Ravaged Seed Pod.
Agatha's Dark Fury Shield - I tended to either have Apocalypse popped on or just before the shield. 2xDeath Coils, 3xClawing Shadows will break the shield if you didn't save though

Depending on your DPS (mine averages 750), your priority is always umbral imps>channeling dark fury Agatha>fuming imps>healing imps=fire imps
This is because if umbral imps spawn during dark fury shielded Agatha, you have to kill imps, then break shield in order to interrupt Agatha. You will take so much damage and it was the cause of so many of my sub 4% wipes.
This ^&*!ty combo usually occurs once near the end of the fight, and worse, it normally happens right after a translocate, hence the need for Wraith Walk to get to the adds fast
When you get this combo, the safest approach is immediately AMS, kill 1 umbral imp, succor, kill another umbral imp, succor, so on and so forth until you break the channel. If she's below 35%, Soul Reaper is insanely helpful as 2 Soul Reapers will break the shield. Then you can relax a little. I also saved my second Army to help with it

Final notes:

Don't panic. I played synthwave to chill and rest
Memorize exactly how much damage each add takes to kill
You can't out dps the healing imps (my final attempt had her at 312hp for 30s because I tried to burst through the healing)
You can run past plague zones, unless umbral imps are out - you might take too much damage if you run through plague zones while they are shooting you, so always plan to be under Agatha just before they spawn
Don't waste runes/CDs (make sure only 3 are on CD just before imp spawns)
Never forget that your melee is substantial dps
Ignore the stacks (Agatha had 40 on my kill)
Watch the boulders (I tended to go into the path of the last passed boulder, unless it was the end boulder of a set. Boulders always spawned in sets of 3, covering left middle and right. If the last boulder of a set was middle, the first boulder of the next set can spawn in the middle)

Good luck!

For this challenge, my talent setup was 3,2,2,3,1,2,1. For consumables, I used a SL sharpening stone, SL flask, and SL mastery food. Then on pull and when it came off CD, I used Potion of Unbridled Fury which ended up doing 18.5k dmg on my killing run.

I used my shadowlands gear, which is only at 215 ilvl, but I swapped my trinkets to some legacy trinkets. The first one I used was Ravaged Seed Pod and it ended up being 5.2% (23.3k dmg) of my dps on this fight. I've seen it mentioned on a few other challenge pages and I feel like it really helped out with this challenge for me. And it's a fairly easy to farm trinket as it drops from the first boss of Emerald Nightmare and it can drop on 3 different difficulties. The other trinket I used was Gronntooth War Horn as it increases your damage done vs demons and the buff is extended when you kill a demon while it is active.

hello all

just killed agatha , my first challenge kill with my dk and i want to share my own experience. It took me around 84 attempts to get it.
This build worked for me and granted me the kill -might help might not
clawing shadows- must ,in my opinion ,striking from a distance boss and adds till u get close
ebon fever adds die faster
asphyxiate
pestilent pustures -yes i didnt use soulreaper for the execution phase it worked well though
spell eater -must ,for surviving adds spells
unholy pact
unholy assault- well ,low cd spell proved way useful for me

-past gear does helps a lot but not a must, so do greenies plus ur repair bill goes up to some silver and u dont end up the day with the ''where the heck did i spent those 2.5k gold to''

-consumables: mastery shadowlands food (fish and cook by urself no need to buy it), drums all expansion ones are the same, oils, no rune (pretty expensive for me) and potion of unbridled fury
if u have an alt or be urself an alchemist/herbalist just grab some of those.

-about the fight : when healing imps spawn use chains on one and asphyxiate on another (i made a simple /tar and /cast macro because i was struggling with tab and click) , use grip and interrupt their spell.The fuming imps were my problem too i kited them away and they left their puddle in a distance from boss,(well most of times it worked) i used ams and dark transformation every time a pack of imps spawn, death strike proc will help u survive a lot and when agatha teleports down u can position urself under her to watch the incoming green balls from behind and dodge them in time. Dont forget to use potion and army when they pop up again , i did many times :P

-as one guy noted below dont panic ,u will eventually learn the fight and get to the kill ( i wiped once at 4%boss hp ...but ok :P)
-dont pay attention to ppl writing its the easiest fight -no its not -or downed <5,<15 or<20 attempts ,each player has its own pace, his own experience and after all the event will be permanent so no reason to rush.
Good luck

I read through the recount statistics after my kill and was really surprised how good 女王护卫的警戒?bonus=6935 was. It did 13.6% of my overall healing. #1 was of deathstrike 40% and #2 skilled AMS with 15%. 13% the crusader proc and then 9% life leach from cloak enchant and seed trinket?. Rest was ghoul sacr and heal pot. This trinket really seems to be quite helpful in MT in general. So look out for the worldquest. :) My second trinket was the Nythendra trinket, which did 10% dmg. So absolutly awesome, because this big add phase I always used it for is the toughest one.

My spec was 3 2 2 3 1 2 1 and I did measily 737 dps. 11 mins fight. What I think is a must and what is helpful:

#must 1: 秽邪契约 you have to practise your positioning, but after you learned it, it obliterates the big add wave. Sure 0 0 0 0 0 0 probably works too, but well, you wont be looking here if you were that good. :) The 3rd talent may work too, but unholy pact did also great dmg to the healing adds, which have a big life pool.
#must 2; 噬法者 Very helpful during the big add wave. It was #2 in healing done.

#helpful 1: 灵魂收割 Yeah its sadly another button you have to keybind, but worth it. P2 is the hardest phase and its an immense help, especially for Agathas shield.
#helpful 2: 死亡延伸 Probably personal preference. The Stun is useful too, but I could handle this better.

What got me the most wipes was #1 cool down greed and #2 Agatha teleports and summons adds.

#1 This encounter can be played as a marathon, so better use your Cds like apocalypse when e.g. heal adds are coming and she shields herself. Dont use it to DPS during an easy phase. The problem is, that if you dont break her shield fast and the adds heal her during that time, she will end up with 10% hps more, but you only gained 5% using apoc during an easy phase.. So in the end it gave you not only nothing, but even set you back, Soul reaper is your important dmg spell for the boss, the others are helpers for the adds.

#2 Especially combined with the #1 mistake this just kills you. Best case, you survive it, but she already healed for 10% or more. Now you have to heal up with DS and do no damage and soon the next phase of heal adds is coming. Hard to catch up here. So better make a short dmg stop and let her spawn the wave beforehand. Heal up before and so on. Dunno for sure, but its seems she does teleport at 40, 30 and 15%.

GL! If you want the book mount, try e.g. fury or mage, depending what you are more familiar with. But I think Agatha is still the easiest Challenge for the DK transmog.

My transmog set for this (im a gnome): Its a poser set anyways, so I chose this sword. Sanctum LFR Kel sword works too though:

I just completed this with a fresh 70. Farmed enough dreamsurges to convert 4 tier pieces, everything else was leveling blues and greens. I never managed to grab Ravaged Seed Pod but I suspect it would have helped take on imps everytime the big pack spawned. On the actual kill I only did 2k dps overall but it only took me about 5 tries. I've never really played Death Knight before, but compared to the other classes that I've done this fight with, this was really easy.

I used the following talents:
BwPA/gf1fDREKLfAcG9Z2HkF/BAiQSicgISEkIRIIJJRCAAAAAAAAAKJJhIAAgkESLRSSikA

I think it's just the raid talents from here on wowhead. I didn't need to tweak them because the fight was over in so few pulls.

I mostly followed the guide above but here is my take on it:

In phase 1 (100% to 50%) -

This was insanely easy compared to most classes. Just press all your cooldowns (including drums and pot), and do the opener rotation.
Boom. Agatha teleports away in like 30 seconds because you already hit 50%. Don't bother focusing on the imps at all in this phase, they just die to cleave/minions
The rest of the fight was a real slog though.

In phase 2 (Back of room) -

Agatha will be at the back of the room which is the easier rolling boulders as you can actually see when to dodge.
Use Death's Advance to get to Agatha a little quicker
Kill the big healing adds first, I used Blinding Sleet when it was up to prevent Agatha getting more health
Kill the umbral imps that cause Agatha to be immune to damage. Even if you have to let some of the exploding imps spread goop everywhere its ok
Get rid of the shield and interrupt, you can use Mind Freeze on a healing imp usually, because the cooldown is so short
Make sure to use Anti-Magic Shell to reduce the damage from the big imp pack and while the shield is up
Slowly wittle down her health

In phase 3 (Front of room) -

Agatha will be at the front of the room which is hard to avoid the boulders since they come from behind you.
I stayed near Agatha, but right on the edge of the platform, and when a boulder came to that side I would just dip into the green for a few seconds while it passed. You take damage from the green stuff, but it easier than trying to dodge the swirlies which do way more damage if you get hit.
Repeat phase 1, killing 2 big imps asap, you can get away with an exploding imp here or there as long as you give yourself enough dodging space
Remember to heal up with Death Strike everytime you kill an imp

Rinse and repeat p2 and p3 again, until your cooldowns come back, then GG.

Keep trying, and good luck!
